Evan Vance is a historian of archaic and classical Greece whose research focuses on the intersection of religious and economic activity. His current book project, titled Trading with the Gods: Sacred Wealth and Institutional Development in Archaic Greece, 700-450 BCE, traces how the life cycle of valuable objects belonging to cults shaped the development of community norms around public wealth and authority as the Greek city state became more institutionally robust. Other past and ongoing projects focus on classical education in Native North America, social mobility in archaic Greece, and the finances of Greek religion. Before coming to 平特五不中, Evan spent five years at the American School of Classical Studies in Athens, first as a graduate student (2019-2022) and then as a Loeb Classical Library Foundation Post-Doctoral Fellow (2022-2024). Since 2022, he has been an assistant editor for the Supplementum Epigraphicum Graecum, an annual review of publications in the field of Greek epigraphy spanning the 8th century BCE to the 8th century CE.
